Miscellany of the Macabre







Here's a few fun DIY ideas!




Instructions for ghost tapers -- Soak candles in warm water (not boiling water) for 10 - 15 minutes and then carefully bend them under the water. Dry them and draw faces with a permanent marker or paint marker. Ready to display!

Whenever I get a new pain, I swear that SOMEONE has a voodoo doll of me and is intent on torturing me.

Too funny, especially the MASH decorations. Well done.

If you can turn people into frogs, start with the big Orange one.

Hello Debra, Again all so good, but perhaps my favorite today is the dandelions. I have seen the bent candles before, but only plain. Making them into ghosts was inspired!

A delightful miscellany for the Spooky Season! Loved the TimBits spiders, the justifiably complaining spiders, the tupperwerewolf and that crazy shadow! Really, they were all good.

All so good but the candles AND the directions how to do it, is brazilliant!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Kirk -- I took it to be Klinger because of the pink outfit and the floppy brimmed woman's hat. But I could be wrong!

As usual all funny and very clever I especially like the spiders. I got to admit. Even during Halloween I still want to stomp on them
